Strongly anisotropic media where the principal components of electric permittivity or magnetic permeability tensors have opposite signs are termed as hyperbolic media. Such media support propagating electromagnetic waves with extremely large wave vectors exhibiting unique optical properties. However, in all artificial and natural optical materials studied to date, the hyperbolic dispersion orig...

The shaping of dispersion characteristics in a variant of disc-loaded circular waveguide was studied through electromagnetic analysis for assessing the structure for wideband coalescence of the beamand waveguide-mode dispersion characteristics that entails the wideband gyro-travelling-wave tube (gyro-TWT) performance. In this variant of disc-loaded circular waveguide, the alternate dischole rad...
